¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
I prefer Roderick's solo version that he does on tour, so I made chords for that.
Here is the version I did: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fvb6XL-vAM
This is the most ridiculously syncopated song I've ever tried to play, so the chord
location will be off in certain places. I tried to match the sounds and the chords
as best as I could.
The intro is in 4/4. Nice and easy. The verses are in 5/4 time, and the choruses
are (mostly) 2 bars of 7/4, 2 bars of 5/4, 2 bars of 7/4, and 2 bars of 5/4. The
bridge part with the Em is in 3/4.
